Discussion Topic: A Very Unhappy Anniversary
Conservation groups in the Great Lakes region are "celebrating" a very big anniversary: zebra mussels were discovered 20 years ago in Lake St. Claire. Zebra mussels have become the poster invasive species, drowning out native mussels and clinging to pretty much anything that stays underwater for more than 20 minutes.
While zebra mussels get the press, there are more invasive species choking out our native wildlife and destroying ecosystems. What do you think the most dangerous invasive species is?
